A group of 300 patients with newly diagnosed pulmonary tuberculosis was studied to determine the role of peripheral features in establishing the diagnosis. Our findings suggest that, when evaluating a suggestive radiological lesion, little or no importance can be attached to the erythrocyte sedimentation rate, the Heaf test, or to the absence of symptoms.
对300例新诊断为肺结核的患者进行了研究，以确定外周特征在确诊中的作用。我们的研究结果表明，在评估一个提示性的放射学病变时，红细胞沉降率、希夫试验或无症状等因素的重要性不大或几乎没有重要性。
